So often, a woman or girl who is abused tries to hide it out of shame. She might hope that if she just sticks it out a little longer, she can figure out how to change it, fix it, make it better. She might believe that she will lose too much if she leaves, that she needs to have a partner because being alone is much worse. She might worry that she will lose her friends or alienate family members if she leaves or if she speaks up about it. And if she tries to take a stand in the relationship, the abuse could escalate. I was that girl and then I was that woman. I wrote this book for therapy, to heal, and to break the cycle for my daughter. And to help anyone to find self-love and forgiveness, too. Turning pain into purpose is my Why.
